"This innovative and intriguing paranormal series is steamy and sexy."

Tom Knight, aka Ender, is a loner and assassin for ACRO
(Agency for Covert Rare Operatives), so he's not sure why
he's being sent on this latest mission. His curiosity about
why his employer wants to add an animal-lover like Kira
Donovan to their unusual arsenal gets the best of Tom when
he becomes territorial and refuses to let anyone but
himself touch Kira. Unfortunately, danger is lurking close
by and Tom is running out of time.

Kira Donovan is fully aware of her special bond with
animals that allows her to communicate with them. Working
on a farm, she's completely within her element, but she
panics a little when she's forced to replace the hired
help. However, when Tom Knight shows up for the job, she
can't help but be satisfied that he meets her needs, in
every way.

This second book in the ACRO series is fabulously sexy and
intriguingly hot. I have become addicted to the
collaboration of the two authors known as Sydney
Croft, and I'm ready to find out what happens next.
Definitely a must-read.

SUMMARY

Feel the heat. Hear the roar.The fever has
begun...

There’s a storm rising. Electricity
crackles in the air. For Kira Donovan, it’s that time of
year again: when the need floods her flesh, when almost
any man—the bigger and the stronger the better—will do.
For Kira, an animal psychic, the heat is a matter of life
and death, and this year it has come at just the right
time. Tom Knight, a natural-born predator, has arrived at
her isolated Idaho farm—for reasons all his
own. . . .

At first Kira isn’t interested in
Knight’s motives. She only needs him—his body, his hands,
his scent. But soon, through a daze of desire and
distrust, Kira discovers Knight’s world—the world of a
covert operative, one man among dozens of secret agents
waging an astonishing global war. Knight’s mission is to
bring Kira—kicking and screaming if necessary—into the
Agency for Covert Rare Operatives and harness her
extraordinary gift. He never expected the powerful
emotions she would ignite in him, or the fierce desire to
keep her safe from harm. For as darkness gathers around
them, Kira is feeling the heat once again, leading them
both on a wild ride of delicious thrills . . . and terror
beyond imagining.
